The 2021 European Colloquium
on Theoretical and
Quantitative Geography
NEW DATES 3 to 5 November 2021, Online
Organised by
the University of Manchester
The European Colloquium on Theoretical and Quantitative Geography 2021 took place in Manchester and Online from 3 to 5 November 2021
The ECTQG 2021 took place on 3 to 5 November 2021 in a brand new online format due to the uncertainties associated with the Covid-19 Pandemic.
Local logistics, foreseeable difficulties in planning international traveling and the risks associated with the pandemic made us opt for this new format.
The Colloquium was successful in keeping the ECTQG community together and maintaining the regular pace of meetings and was also successful in broadening the audience to a higher number of submissions from East Asia and Latin America, for example.
We had three great keynote lectures, one workshop on pedagogies of quantitative geography and 20 special and parallel sessions with more than 90 presentations by more than 260 authors.
The Manchester Organising Committee wishes to thank all, authors and participants, for their interest and enthusiasm for the colloquium.
We will see each other again in the ECTQG 2023 in Portugal. Bookmark www.ectqg.eu for updated information.
